Peer pressure

-
Peer pressure is when you are directly or indirectly influenced from your peers on you. This influence can bring positive or negative changes in your behaviour. Someone can do this so that they can feel liked by their friends or peers. Although peer pressure is usually described as negative, there is positive peer pressure too. Negative peer pressure is something that everyone should avoid at all costs because it can cause a decline in one's mental health, they can get anxiety and depression and so on. Postive peer pressure can be beneficial and can strengthen your personality but at the end of the day, it is always the best to be yourself no matter what. Everyone has their own unique personality that no one else has and even if someone doesn't have many friends, they will find one friend in their life who will truly love their personality and will never try to influence them. Just because of your reputation, you should never try to change yourself because your personality is perfect just the way it is.

This tiny endless cycle keeps on going until we can't find the motivation to push ourselves anymore. Then what do we do? Getting more overwhelmed is something that happens to us unconsciously in these types of situations. But that's not the right approach to problems like these.  Instead, look outside your window and remind yourself of something that you are thankful for in your life. It doesn't need to be anything big and robust. Even if it's a small detail, it doesn't matter as long as you are satisfied. Remember and immerse yourself in that detail. And for a while, you may find yourself feeling happier, energetic, less overwhelmed and most of...

True Self Over Societal Expectations

Society is the world's biggest and most feared judge. Everyone wants to be loved by other people and feel like they belong in this world. But society's absurd 'rules and regulations' have their dreams crushed. The public has created their own ideal 'perfect person with a perfect personality' that every one strives to be, so that they can feel wanted and accepted. But in the midst of trying to be that perfect person, we lose ourselves. We lose our true personality that used to define us.  Maybe we might not be society's favourite. But the truth is that nobody is society's favourite. So instead, we should try to be our favourite. Be your own favourite person. Don't run after acceptance and that perfect persona, charm and looks. It may see like the best option to feel accepted, but it's actually one of the worst options in disguise. Because doing all of this, is never worth losing your true self. Trying to please the public is just one of the defini...
